#SpeedyThursday
Got a new NATO strap, thanks to the assurances of several members who said Haveston straps solve the issues I've had with NATOs. Thank you, one and all!! This strap is the BOMB-DIGGITY.
馃榿 I have long loved the concept of the NATO strap, the material, the look, and the protection it offers. What I couldn't get used to was the clasp sitting on the side of my wrist and the extra bunched strapage that gathers at the top near the lugs.
Haveston doesn't currently make 21mm straps, which is the exact size the co-axial Speedmasters take. It's an odd size and availability of such straps is not good. 20mm wide straps are plentiful, and they
can be used, but there is always a gap between the lugs and the edges of the strap. Small, and some would say its insignificant, but that kind of fault drives me up a tree! There is the slightest bit of bunching between the lower lugs as a 22mm strap fills in a 21mm space, but I can melt a millimeter off in the appropriate place.
Thanks for the recommends gents!
